Exclusive: First Strictly Come Dancing contestants revealed!

Johannesburg - The Juice can exclusively reveal that Expresso presenter Leigh-Anne Williams and Zaziwa host Pearl Modiadie have been cast in the new season of Strictly Come Dancing.

While a full cast has yet to be revealed, we can also confirm that presenters Roxy Burger and Katlego Maboe will remain as hosts of the show. Yay.

Season 8 will air on 5 June on SABC 3 at 19:30 and The Juice understands that contestants have already been practising their dance moves.

"All of the contestants have been picked and they have already been teamed up with their dance partners, with some people already in training," says our source.

It's understood that the show will also have a slight format change with a single show being aired instead of one. This means that the results will be televised on the same night as the the dancer's performances.

Watch this space as we reveal more of the contestants who will be taking part.
